Old Gaol Museum, Buckingham

The Old Gaol dates from 1748, but it now houses a wonderful museum which explores the history of Buckingham and the military heritage of Buckinghamshire. The museum occupies part of the old cell block and the prison courtyard.

Themed rooms in the museum showcase ancient, Tudor, and Georgian Buckingham, as well as an Edwardian shop and mementoes of Florence Nightingale.
